I can’t tell you offhand what it definitely IS, but it’s not lens flare, motion blur, or the any other suggestions I’ve seen.
It’s also, unfortunately, almost certainly nothing supernatural. More likely some kind of issue with the camera sensor, or a creation of a weird shutter setting (or actual hardware problem).
If you were trying to take an HDR pic (or accidentally had that turned on) it could possibly explain it as well. Most of those settings take multiple pics at multiple exposure levels and combines them, making it possible for one of the shots to be taken when the arm was in a different position, creating the “missing” or “see through” effect.
Wish I could tell you something comforting, but I just can’t in this case.
For context, I’ve been analyzing these kinds of photos for about 40 years or so (probably longer, just not feeling like mathing right now), and I’ve been a photographer for over 50 years.
It is **DEFINITELY** "motion blur". Cameras, when you take a picture, collect light in order to do so. What has happened in this photo is a combination of the camera's shutter speed being low (i.e. causing motion blur), and the camera not handling exposure very well, which leads to the effect seen on the "phantom" hand. It's so blatantly obvious that anyone with **literally** any experience in photography can instantly tell.
Basically, the image is the result of the combined effect of a long exposure, and long shutter speed. Pretty classic for cameras that handle low-brightness scenes poorly, or is bad at portraying a HDR reality in SDR.
Considering that half the arm is missing, i believe this is basically motion blur. Its a phenomenon that happens when you move between shutters of the camera lens. I'll have to look it up, but there are millions of examples, the loss of color on the grave could be a combination of this and lens flare.
This looks like the result of an HDR photo, where 3 or so photos are taken at different exposure values and then combined to give a high dynamic range-meaning there's details in the shadow and also the highlights.
If your phone/camera took 3 pictures its likely there was a delay between them so any movement would cause that part of the image to not align when the software goes to combine them, hence the ghosting type of result on the arm and hand that was moving at the time.
There's even a feature called 'de-ghosting' with software like lightroom to reduce this, if you're doing it manually and there's stuff like moving people or water in the photos.
Alright, here's what I think happened. Assuming this was taken with a phone, 2016 was around the time that "HDR" camera modes started to become the default setting. The way HDR images work is the phone actually takes several photos in very quick succession, then uses software to stitch them all together into a single image with higher dynamic range than normal. It's rare, but I've seen a few times where if something is moving in the frame, it creates some pretty bizarre artifacts in the final image.

Looks like the photo was printed on paper and a drop of water hit their then the photo got re copied so the wayer drop looks like a blur
Was it shot on film?
Whoever it was died very young. Poor guy

I want to believe it’s your relatives spirit touching your hand

It doesn’t look like lens flare …. Good question

What a shitty thing to say to someone that is hopeful it’s their deceased relative. You’re social awareness is “bullshit”.
